Default 11's possible?

Last year I ran 12.73@111 with a 2.0 60', stock gears, lid, pulley, nittos, LT's, ORY, and tuning. This winter im adding a 9" with 4.30's, LS6 intake, ported TB, and losing about 100 lbs (mostly off the nose). Think I can squeak an 11 out of it assuming I hook well? Car is a 99 M6.

I need to drop .75 to hit an 11. The 2.0 60' was my biggest problem. I think it will be close. Raceweight should be 3350 or less with me in it.

If you get it to hook on a full slick, I would say 12.1 or 12.2. What is your raceweight?

With a decent 60' (mid 1.6's) you can hit 12's with about 113-114 mph. Going from stock gears to 4.30's I can't imagine on why you shouldn't pick up 1-2 mph and loosing the 100bls is about a tenth. I'd say 12.0-12.1. Depends also on the weather.

You would have hit it for sure dude. I thought about doing a cam and spray instead of the rear, but it would have grenaded instantly. How is your car coming along? I just got the moser 9" delivered last week.

Good, Got some more weight out of it, and I think I may take off the heads and have them milled and cleaned up a little. how does that Moser piece look? You should PM what the total ended up being as I am still on the market.
